You Can't Put a Price on Education

Teachers and professors are not you friends.

Education is NOT your ticket out of poverty.

You must do the work to be successful.

One of the very few things Obama did that was useful was to essentially shutdown the "for profit" college scene by making them ineligible for Federal student loans.

What can you say but: Poor people are profitable.

Ask every inquisitor type in every church and he'll tell you.

And just as Dostoevsky's inquisitor didn't need to believe in the thin gruel of religious hope that he was peddling, neither do these clowns.

"You must do the work to be successful."

You must do something better than hope, you must do something better than believing that you need to win over a bunch of Leftist bureaucrats as your friends, you must do something better than letting some enemy's dossier or a piece of paper "vouch" for you and your abilities.

Support your real friends who want to make degrees disregarded entities for hiring: the only way that a degree should influence hiring is as a negative, as in WTF were you doing for all of those years chasing paper instead of actually learning, succeeding, and winning.

College and university administrators are just a more respectable managerial class of drug dealers now, and the teachers and professors working within their shadows are just more respectable classes of dime bag hustlers now.

Oh teacher, wouldn't you teach a kid how not to be you?

That would be such class.

By now it should be obvious that any self-motivated person can educate themselves in just about any subject they're interested in ON THE INTERNET, for free or for a tiny fraction of what these colleges charge.
